Mailed application on July 21st,2023 from Vancouver BC. (Standard application, non-urgent)
Application received on July 25th, 2023. Received passport by standard mail on Aug 14th, 2023.
Walk-in application (Vancouver, Service Canada at Sinclair building downtown)
Applied on (in-person): August 4 (Friday)
Application non-urgent. Just a general, classic application.
I choose mailed to me option (not pick-up - hate going downtown from North Vancouver.) Was told that the passport should be mailed out on August 21 (Monday)
Given that August 7t (Monday) was a holiday - BC Day, it is a very reasonable timeline - 10 business days. Plus, I assume +/- 2 days for mailing/shipping. I plan to get it next week - August 23-24 (Wednesday - Thursday). All in all - with shipping - should be 13-14 business days.
Just a quick update to my post earlier. Today (August 15) my passport tracker says that the passport has been printed and mailed. I expect to receive it tomorrow (August 16).
That means it took +/-5 business days to process it.
